Chandi, Pam, and Erin (thanks to Andi's killer silent-yet-not-so-silent auction skills) got to go to the game to watch the madness! It was a beautiful 80 degree sunny blue sky afternoon at Wrigley Field. The crowd was hype, the beer was....hmmm, well it was ballpark beer (one step up from piss), picture fun was in full swing, Vince Vaughn led us in song in the 7th inning stretch, and the Cubs clinched the title in a 5-4 victory over St. Louis. (My boyfriend, Mark DeRosa, did a phenomenal job. All of our practicing has paid off!)
Most of the posse (minus me who had to pee and decided to throw a temper tantrum) got to celebrate the victory in the stands with thousands of other devoted Cubs fans and sing the notorious "Go Cubs Go" victory song! The crowd poured out onto Addison and took to the streets of Wrigleyville. We, of course, participated in the celebration at several local watering holes (Murphys, Mullens, and Fat Cat). A fun night was had by all. Here are a few pictures that capture the evening. Enjoy, and "Go Cubs Go, Go Cubs Go, Hey Chicago What Do You Say, Cubs Are Gonna Win Today!"

Is it just me, or does Lou Pinella look like he's gonna bust out of his trousers when he walks out to the pitcher's mound?
Sox suck!
